OK Joel - for what it's worth (and having successfully installed 7.0.1 p1, and also having an environment notorious for system configs that cause problems with ARS....here is what I would recommend if possible.
Try taking server off the network, no patches for OS, no security templates, no virus stuff, no nuttin'! - cold hard server OS only. Install AR server elements, then apps - then if it works, apply patches, templates, etc.. This works for me and I am running a similar environment but using SQL 2005. :) Candace -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joel D. Sender, ARSlist Administrator Sent: Wednesday, January 31, 2007 5:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: ARS 7.0.1 Install crashes Hi all, Here's why the few hairs I have left are grey: New win 2003 sp1 server (all ms updates), SQL 2000 (std): I installed the User & Admin tools OK. When I attempt to install ARS 7.0.1 p1 (server.exe), after the last prompt (SA password) the install disappears. No log files, no event log entries, nothing! Same result with Symatec AV disabled and windows 'data execution prevention' set to 'windows only'. Same result with 'net ops' or on the actual console. Same result if unicode is specified or not. Same result with ARS 7.0.1 server.exe (no patch) Same result on an identical server (intending to use SQL on 1st server). Note that the install CD (burned from a download) and today's direct download to the server are both the same size, AND both failed the same way. I suspect that there's a windows setting causing this, but the local SysAdmins (who seem real sharp) are at a loss. BMC Support reports never having seen this behavior before. My Case has been escalated to their next level. I've raised the escalation to the ARSlist. BTW, I havn't had this much difficulty installing ARS since I had to use diskettes for ARS 2.0 on a unix box ...
